== Adding an external link (e.g. to Bailii) ==


Enclose the ''page name'' with <nowiki>[[</nowiki> at the beginning and <nowiki>]]</nowiki> at the end.
The easy way:


e.g. <nowiki>[[s1 Mental Health Act 1983]]</nowiki>
* Just type in the full website address, e.g. '''<nowiki>http://www.bailii.org.uk</nowiki>''' becomes http://www.bailii.org.uk

E.g. to the Bailii website.
== Adding section headings (like this one)==


Click "edit" on the page you want to contain the link.
Enclose the section heading with '''<nowiki>==</nowiki>''' on either side, e.g. '''<nowiki>== Section heading ==</nowiki>'''.  


In the correct place on the page type:
Use '''<nowiki>===</nowiki>''' for sub-headings.
 
* <nowiki>[</nowiki> (only one square bracket for external links)
* <nowiki>http://www.</nowiki>''etc'' (the full website address e.g. www.lawsociety.org.uk)
* a space character
* a description of the site (e.g. The Law Society)
* <nowiki>]</nowiki>
 
On the same line you can add:
 
* a dash i.e. -
* further details
 
For example:
 
<nowiki>[http://www.lawsociety.org.uk Law Society] - The solicitors' regulatory and representative body</nowiki>
 
which appears as
 
[http://www.lawsociety.org.uk Law Society] - The solicitors' regulatory and representative body
 
Alternatively, if you want to be lazy, simply type the <nowiki>http://www.''etc''</nowiki> address on its own, which will automatically turn into a link with no description.
 
==Adding section headings (like this one)==
 
Simply type, on a new line:
 
* <nowiki>==</nowiki>
* Your heading name
* <nowiki>==</nowiki>
 
e.g.
<nowiki>== Section heading ==</nowiki>
